Get Ready Now: Republicans Will Refuse to Certify a Harris Win
I am reminded of an old Al Franken slogan, "If it's not close, they can't steal it."
Get out there and vote.

Thank goodness #SCotUS gave #Biden carte' blanche to do absolutely anything he wants to guarantee #TheOrangeMenace never takes office, huh. 🤔
@MugsysRapSheet @knittingknots2 The problem is, they did this because they know Biden would never actually do anything with the absolute power they just granted to the presidency. And to be fair, can you think of any Democrat that actually would do anything like order him assassinated or something? Even one? They knew when they did this that it was very much a one-sided thing.
@nazokiyoubinbou @knittingknots2
We don't have to go as far as "assassination".
Simply refusing to hold an inauguration until an investigation into #ElectionFraud was completed would be more than sufficient.
#Trivia: The date of the inauguration isn't in the #Constitution. It was set to Jan 20th by #FDR because the actual transition date was too arbitrary (after he was elected in '32 in the middle of #TheGreatDepression, people had to wait until April before Hoover was finally out of office.)
@MugsysRapSheet @knittingknots2 Good point, but all I was saying is Biden is the sort who will pretty much follow the "right thing" even if the Supreme Court has essentially declared he is the emperor of the country above all law.
Though, I just realized this is even stranger still when you consider that apparently just being a former president is enough to receive this immunity. So that immunity to law (according to the Supreme Court) applies to all living former presidents...
@nazokiyoubinbou @knittingknots2
It only applies to acts committed WHILE in office, and if challenged, the #SCotUS must still rule whether the act was part of their "official" duties. (THIS court would defer to T****, but rule against #Biden for the same crime.)
@MugsysRapSheet The Supreme Court already ruled against Trump, though, sending the case back for prosecution.
So yeah it’s not acts committed while in office. It’s official, legal acts that cannot be prosecuted. Yeah, the Supreme Court said you can’t be prosecuted for legal things. It’s really not that crazy ruling as so many misleading writings have been trying to spread.
So this court has already refused to defer to Trump and has cleared the way for prosecuting him. It’s right there in the ruling.
Again, it wasn’t a crazy ruling, it basically just said a president can’t harass somebody with the justice department.
